Additional Information: Instructed by:
Are you curious about the MR340, it's the longest non stop paddle race in the world. However, it's still do able by novice racers and even people who consider themselves "paddlers". Since the race course is the Missouri River it's right in the backyard of most Missouri residents. This program is appropriate for MR340 racers, ground crew members and people who are just interested in learning what it takes to paddle across the state of Missouri in less than four days. We will discuss the history of the race, Types of boats, whether to go solo or as a team, how to prepare, what to expect along the way, what to take with you and what to leave at home, dangers on the river - real and perceived, weather, day paddling/night paddling, goals, can I sleep, do I need a ground crew, ramp volunteers, community involvement, and nature along the river. Each participant is required to register for this program separately, contact the instructor for assistance with registration. John Rittel
